I think it is unbelievable the rubbish being put forward on this thread Niemmi can earn a living where ever he wants without getting permission from people on here.

It is possible that the new regime think promotion is impossible this year and just want the team to consolidate but I would expect a few players to be signed in the coming weeks

No not really something will happen soon

He is not always in the bookshop but when I have met him there I find him very pleasant and we have interesting conversations regarding our football teams

Gobern has Saints best chance of the night as Pulis heads a neat ball through, however, the Boro keeper gets down quick to save well less than a minute ago from Twitterrific

Been with Hants for July Batting and Fielding Consultant apparently.

Duncan seems to have instilled confidence with the Hampshire Batters I hope his consultancy will continue in future seasons.

It cant have been easy playing for a club that was going to go into Admin

Confidence and awareness/experience I would suggest

I agree with you just for interest's sake it would be good to know

Rasiak Scores goals If you want somebody to run around get in Brett Ormerod but he hardly ever scored

Probably players who did not Start the Hearts match Saga Rasiak up front?

With Clarke and Katich certainities for the third test based on performances during the current tour match another two from North Watson and S Clark could be involved

Yes I just looked at the fixture list and realised what you were saying. We just need a good start and a few new players

Very well put and I am in total agreement

Oh if life was so simple

It was the Premiership surely which stopped clubs like us prospering . The PLC was set up because we were floundering and proved relatively successful although a lack of money to buy more talented players led to our eventual downfall

I dont think beating a poor Hearts team is called flying welcomed though it was. Lets wait until we win games in the league we have had so many false dawns when we beat Ipswich convincingly

Probably yes but possibly no Just Look at Newcastle and Pompey they have/had rich owners but are currently not in a good position

I think the point being made is more theoretical than practical. As you say there is absolutely no evidence that Markus will not be a good owner. However we dont really know him and it is possible that the club will not be run the way we want. I am not certain how the club will be run and how the decision to buy and sell players will be made in the past it was probably made on financial reasons only

Duncan's point is it is not
